A warm brew
music,
sunshine,
laughter,
and of course,
You.
Kasandra Curtis Sep 2012
My kiss in the morning,
my love through the night,
these arms when you need them,
hold my body tight.
My song when you are sad,
my laughter when you're mad,
I can only offer so much,
but please
take all I have.
I wish I had more.

I want to kiss you so badly
I'm fumbling everything I touch,
So long and so deep,
until you are as fumbly, and giddy, as I am,
Thinking about kissing you,
that's all I can think to do,
I have a one track mind right now,
Its all your lips
My lips,
It driving me rabid.
In an hour
I'll crave chocolate,
Or my favorite Chopin record.
But for now, all I can think of is kissing you,
Nothing more,
Just kissing you
Until our lips fall off,
And we take a monks vow against kissing,
Which of course we would break,
Once the stitches healed.

Your kiss before bed
The foundation for sweet dreams,
Soft down quilt, and you.
A silly poem, thinking about bed time, and bed in general.

Thinking about you,
As I play the piano,
Waiting for you to get back from the bagel store,
I grin like a satisfied cat,
Full of sweet cream, lovingly provided.
Our church is being fumigated,
And today will truly be a day of rejuvenation.
The dog is yipping,
The bird squawking,
Alice is singing,
I'm playing,
All this is a mere pin drop
Compared to the choral ensemble
That sings your praises
Whenever I whisper your name.
Knowing your love shall return,
With a bag full of bagels,
And your singular spirit of loving,
Is what makes my play,
Makes Alice sing,
Makes the bird squawk,
Makes the dog yip,
Makes me grin like a satisfied cat.
That knows that it is loved.

In the pre dawn dark
I inhale the fragrant aroma
Of the fresh brewing coffee.
You walk up behind me
And hug me from behind,
I am so lost in the smell of the coffee,
And you, I give praise for all I have.
Your love,
On this early Saturday morning,
Is a blessed miracle.
You sit next to me,
And we share the first cup together,
Looking into each others eyes
Through the slow rising steam vapor,
Inhaling the particles of roasted beans,
And fragrant oils.
Together, with you
I cannot express the contentment I feel,
Just having you near.
It's clear, you mean the earth to me.
Every Saturday morning shared with you,
Is a sneak peak of heaven.
And as the sun rises, we will bask together in its glory.

Floating like an astronaut
I bound across the rug, a smiling spirit
I sing unconsciously.
Tomorrow is Saturday,
And we will be together.
Hot coffee and cold ice cream sensations
Overtake me,
I squeal, like a giddy child,
Thoughts of you do this to me.
You satisfy like the lunch special at an old school Greek diner.
But you make better coffee than them.
I always make it too weak or too strong,
Even when we are too old to do anything other than sit and wait to die,
I will still need you,
To hold my hand, look into my eyes,
And of course
To make the coffee.
But, I'd love you still, even if you made horrible coffee.
I'd still want to hold
Your hand,
And look into your eyes,
And when we're that old
We can always go to the diner,
And eat ice cream.
The coffee's pretty good there too,
And when your with me, I don't even need to put sugar in it.
Just some silliness, floating around in my head.
